My friend uses roku and I found it hilariously dystopian that the screen saver is basically just an artistic side scrolling city scape with billboards that advertise shit shows and movies you can stream or pay for.

Plex/Jellyfin is the only way to go.

I gotcha, thanks for sharing. It’s cool hearing from people who are so far away!

I wanted to go with a pi for my HTPC but I have a Plex server and all my movies are full bitrate 4k files straight from the UHD blurays and the pi couldn’t handle that bitrate. Ended up building a small ITX PC with my old PC hardware and a new Intel A380 gpu.

I’m so thankful intel is doing their best to enter the discreet GPU market. Such banger cards for so little.

That’s crazy! If you don’t mind me asking what do you typically do on your machine and how much time do you spend on it?

I’m just curious because I spend a lot of time on my PC and can only imagine how horrible all the stuff I do would be on that hardware lol

“AI heavily increased GPU prices” Nvidia one of the greediest companys around increased the prices of GPUs, not necessarily AIs fault because nvidia is in direct control of their card prices.

Take a look at Intel’s new GPUs, they are actually priced in a way that isn’t fist fucking the consumer.

I still order from them although it’s definitely gotten worse and the website feels like It was designed exclusively by the marketing team and high-up executives instead of web engineers.

Honestly, I typically gravitate towards Amazon over Newegg these days, but Newegg does have a lot more options for computer hardware, so I still order from them. I just ordered an ITX motherboard and SFX power supply from newegg yesterday actually because amazom didn’t have the products I wanted.

Oh awesome, I didn’t even know about this other project. Thanks for letting me know.

True that, I just thought it was crazy. I had recently upgraded to 96 gigs of RAM and I just never imagined a browser would actually suck up that much.

I’m so hyped as well! Just read their monthly update blog today actually! I’m mostly hyped because it’s the first actual new web browser in a very, very long time, and that’s just plain exciting!

Dawg I had like ~35 tabs open and hadn’t restarted my PC in over three weeks. Fucking Firefox was sucking back 80 gigs of RAM. 80 fucking gigs.

On the bright side all the tabs were still loaded when I clicked through them.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ people die everyday

Post or pre coutis?

The only video game I play is Team Fortress 2, anywhere from 10 to 20 hours a week. So I guess I’m a patient gamer since my favorite game is over 6,000 days old.

I would never install a rootkit on my system to play a video game anyway.

The article states the taken down was sent to Garry Newman, so that would be his game studio face punch. Valve would not be included in this legal battle.

Edit: Before anyone says anything about valve assets I know, gmod is my favorite childhood/early teens game. Still they wouldn’t be involved with this unless the dmca was sent to them.

I’m so sorry you rely on adobe products, that’s horrible

Hopefully those FOSS projects will gain some sense as discord becomes more shit and will leave. One can hope.

Gabe will have a good successor. Valve has a lot of talented and passionate employees that have been with the company since near the start.

So would the people from hexbear be considered tankies?

I maintain my lean figure by consuming 1000 calories of Soylent for the morning/lunch time and and pigging out for dinner. There is cheap nutritionally good food, but junk food addicts don’t care to seek it out.
